Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I have dark circles under my eyes which make me look tired and affects my appearance. Since last 1 week I am applying potato juice in the day, cucumber slice in the night and almond oil before going to bed but no results yet. Please help me to get rid off this.
As per your query chronic dark circles under eye could be due to iron deficiency anemia, thin under eye skin, hyper pigmentation, excessive use of TV/ Computer, stress. Need not to panic about it. you have to go for few life style modifications and along with that proper course of treatment. I would suggest you to drink plenty of water to maintain hydration, take 6-8 hours sleep daily, avoid stress in life. Take diet rich in iron supplements and multivitamins as well. Apply Skin lightening cream containing glycolic acid, kojic acid, Vit C can be helpful in reducing the appearance of dark circles. Avoid excessive exposure to sun light. Visit dermatologist once and get chemical peels if symptoms keeps on persisting.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
